Research Databases

These various databases are all a part of the Alabama Virtual Library. Access is only available to Alabama residents through the AVL. Remember that searching a database is not similar to searching in Google. When possible always choose the "Full Text" option. These are divided into Gale, General Reference, and EBSCO databases.
